T5 lights

Reeferboy92 · Aug 18, 2019

Hey reefers so I’m thinking of going to t5. I was wondering what’s a good t5 fixture and wanted to get some options on what you guys experienced with t5. Right now I’m looking at the 48" HYBRID T5HO 4X54W FIXTURE WITH LED MOUNTING SYSTEM

If you've already got LED lights and want to add T5s, the Aquatic Life hybrid fixture is perfect.

Yeah I have 2 hydra 26 so I was looking at the hybrid. I just wanna know if it’s worth the money to get the t5?

Yes. I added the aquatic life fixtures to my led setup and I’m very satisfied with the color and growth of my corals. I can definitely tell the difference.

What lights are you using on the t5 and can you send a picture?

8 bulb amazon special (lol) with 2 center bulbs removed and Orphek OR120s in their place (1 blue sky and 1 UV)
4 ati blue+ And 2 ati purple+
Huuuuuge difference when added the t5 back to the system from straight led.
Any excuse to show my baby off. Lol
